I do not see what the hype is all about...
3 Star Rating: Average

The place is nice, tons of things to look at! The service was fair, not my idea of good service. The apps, were tasty, but "done up" up in a way that distracted from the taste. The Guac is good, not the best I have ever had, for being so fresh! The meals were small, but the place is a little higher end. The dishes were tasty, but not really that great. the tacos were dry, and the fish was over cooked. There are tons of places were you can get better Mexican food. I do not think I will be rushing back to ElVez anytime too soon.

Pros: Nice decor

Cons: service, food, hype
